Description
Experience Rolf de Heer and Peter Djiggir’s cautionary tale of forbidden love in this stunning new 4K restoration.
Back in the old times, young aboriginal warrior Dayindi (Jamie Gulpilil) covets the youngest wife of his older brother Minygululu (Peter Minygululu). Out on the swamp on a goose-egg hunting expedition, Minygululu tells Dayindi a cautionary story from the mythical times, a tale within the tale, of the dire possible consequences if such feelings are acted upon.
